That's Not What I Said Lyrics

That’s not what I said but if that’s what you heard Then you didn’t hear one single word We’re so far apart, something is missing It makes it hard when no one is listening
I say black, you say white I say day, you say night We don’t talk anymore without keeping score I say I need time, all you hear is goodbye in your head
If that’s what you heard That’s not what I said
Not long ago, there was a time We were so close that you read my mind Now things that we say end up being hurtful Lately it seems we go ‘round in circles
I say black, you say white I say day, you say night We don’t talk anymore without keeping score I say I need time, all you hear is goodbye in your head
If that’s what you heard That’s not what I said
Let’s lay down our gloves, pay attention to love It doesn’t matter who’s right or who’s wrong If we don’t change, baby, it just keeps going on and on
I say black, you say white I say day, you say night We don’t talk anymore without keeping score I say I need time, all you hear is goodbye in your head
If that’s what you heard That’s not what I said
